A bit different for you Fiona but really well drawn

Really well done Fiona.

Mick, Shaun, Russell, Bob, Andrew, Frank, Martin, David…..thank you all very much for your positive comments, especially on a very different subject for me.

Love this Fiona, you've also captured an air of sadness about the scene - I don't know if that was deliberate!?

Thank you very much Trevor, glad you like it. I didn’t deliberately set out to give it an air of sadness but I do feel a sense of loss from these days and times.

Works well with great sense of depth Fiona.

Great detail Fiona.

Many thanks John and Sandra for your very kind comments.

Wow Fiona! This is really impressive!
